You are looking at the top level of the FreeCalypso host tools package. All tools in this package have been written to run on a Unix-based or Unix-like host system, such as a GNU/Linux PC or laptop, with the expectation that the user will compile them from the source using her regular system C compiler. Most of these tools interface to and operate on Calypso-based GSM devices, while a few perform some ancillary functions. Please see doc/Host-tools-overview for the listing of what tools are available and what they do. These tools are built in the following source directories: ffstools tiffs, mokoffs and pirffs are built here. loadtools fc-loadtool, fc-iram, fc-xram and fc-compalram form the part of FC host tools called loadtools, which used to be its own package. In common with the rest of FC host tools, loadtools run on a PC or whatever host system, but they also require two target-side components called loadagent (for all targets) and compalstage (for Compal phones only). If you are working with a packaged release of FC host tools, as opposed to a random snapshot of the source tree, precompiled binaries for loadagent and compalstage will be included under loadtools/target-binaries. lcdemu fc-lcdemu is built here. miscutil fc-rgbconv, fc-serterm and imei-luhn are built here. rvinterf Everything dealing with the RVTMUX interface to running GSM firmwares and everything based on the rvinterf framework is built under rvinterf. The tfc139 utility, which logically belongs with loadtools, is built in the rvinterf subtree because it is built from mostly the same source components as rvtdump and rvinterf. The 5 directories listed above contain all of FC host tools; they are all you need in order to get a fully working installation of these tools if you are using the provided precompiled binaries for loadagent and compalstage. However, if you would like to recompile these components from source, you will need the following additional stuff: target-utils The source for loadagent and compalstage lives here, along with a few extra target utilities that are of interest only to developers. toolchain Scripts and patches for building the gcc+binutils toolchain targeting ARM7, the CPU core of the Calypso GSM/GPRS baseband processor. You'll need to build and install this toolchain first before you can build target-utils.
